Summer Fruit
Here in the northeastern corner of the US, it's berry picking season. Ripe and delicious strawberries and blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are ready for the taking. Fruit has a long and interesting history as a subject in art. In the Baroque era, painters would depict lavish bounties of exotic fruits and other delicious delights for patrons to essentially show off their wealth to others. Many a student and teacher alike will test their skills with a simple fruit still life, and contemporary creators are still tackling the subject with a new eye, and a new twist.

Summer Vacation
School is out (or at least almost) and you know what that means... summer vacation time! What are your travel plans this year? Any new destinations you will be visiting or is it a yearly tradition to go to the same place?

Spring Picnic
This weekend, many Americans will be gathering to celebrate Memorial Day with their family and friends. Burgers on the grill, homemade salads and fresh slices of watermelon make for a perfect feast for all generations. Considering that Fine Art Friday is an international movement, it would be interesting to hear about how you enjoy a good picnic wherever you live. What foods or traditions are typical staples to the festivities for you and your family?
